Paris Take 2

Gorgeous Dog
I love the dog. He is gorgeous and seems like a real character. I had a good laugh as I read about him. You saw some of the things we've seen, especially Montmartre. As you know I loved it. Happily we were not bothered by the portrait artists when we sat outside for lunch. Dad got caught later as we walked around the artist's stalls. That pancake looks delicious! Did it have any alcohol on it? I'm glad you got to share Paris with Sylvain again. It is always so much more fun together site seeing. I like the "shadows" sculpture - very effective, and of course all the night lights are great in Paris. You were lucky to see all the Xmas light stalls. We have just been looking at some holiday brochures (yes they are trying to get us to go again!) and one of the tours is specifically to see those shops around Europe. Re the Braille Playboy, if you remember your grandfather used to read it. He reckoned it had some good articles in it. I always wondered if they had Braille girls, too, but he said not. Did you see any? Nice to read the last part of your journey!!

Going overseas again
I would REALLY love to come over again. I'd like to see Greece and Dad is interested in looking at Eastern Europe but we spent galloping heaps of money on the last 2 holidays and he is worried about not having enough for our retirement and possible round AUssie tour (grey nomad style) so it looks as though it is not going to happen. I would love to see how you've settled in there, too. I don't think I've actually been to MK. I was looking at someone's log on the home page yesterday and it was about Bath. It brought back some lovely memories and made me wish I could revisit some of my favourite places like Bath. I have always wanted to return to Chatsworth House, too, which I saw as a 10/11 year old but made such an impression that I have never forgotten it. Maybe I can persuade him to come to UK while you're still there. It would be nice!
